help with return

hi guys! Can you help me figure out what's wrong with my code below. Thanks in advance!

Code:

---

        public int DAA_AddUserAccount(string user_Name, string user_Password,
                                      string user_Firsname, string user_Lastname,
                                      string user_MiddleInitial)
        {
            try
            {
                int returnval = 0;

                spName = "sp_User_AddUserAccount";

                DBConnection.DBConnection dbConnection = new DBConnection.DBConnection();
                connection = dbConnection.CreateConnection();
                connection.Open();

                command = new SqlCommand();
                command.CommandText = spName;
                command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
                command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@User_LogIn", user_Name);
                command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@User_PassWord", user_Password);
                command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@User_FirstName", user_Firsname);
                command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@User_LastName", user_Lastname);
                command.Parameters.AddWithValue("@User_MiddleInitial", user_MiddleInitial);
                //SqlParameter parameter = command.Parameters.Add("@identity", SqlDbType.Int);
                //parameter.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;

                command.Connection = connection;

                returnval = command.ExecuteNonQuery();
                return returnval;
            }
            catch (SqlException ex)
            {
                CommonFunctions.ShowSqlException(ex);
            }
            finally
            {
                connection.Close();
            }
        }

Error 1 'RCPSProject.DAA_Classes.DAA_UserAccount.DAA_AddUserAccount(string, string, string, string, string)': not all code paths return a val

If an exception is thrown execution will never reach a return statement. You should declare returnval before the try block and place your return statement after the finally block.

OK...Thanks a bunch JM!
